James Suckling, 93 Points 

"A succulent, fresh and precise Sancerre with aromas of fresh lemons, wet stones and herbs on the nose. Medium body with zesty acidity. Mineral and textural. Restrained and harmonious with a vivid finish with a flinty lift." 

Wine Enthusiast, 92 Points 

"If you’re looking for a grown-up Sancerre with lively acidity and body, you’ve found it. This wine has a nose of golden apple, bruised quince, white blossom and Asian pear. Somewhat steely in texture, the wine has an undercurrent of lemon citrus that surfs under just-ripened orchard fruit that rides to shore on your back palate." 

Winemaker Notes: 

"Lemon-color with golden-green reflections. Complex and intense aromas of acacia blossoms with a Muscat-like nose of passionfruit. the palate is full and fat. Very well balanced. Notes of litchi and a small touch of honey." 

Alcohol: 13%
